Domaine Valeria Naudin Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits Rouge les Traverses 2023

Terroir:
‘Les Traverses’ is a lieu-dit situated in the village of Bévy, off Vosne-Romanée, at an altitude of 405 metres. The name ‘Traverses’ is likely to be derived from the Latin word ‘Transversum’, implying a steep incline on the slope. The plot is nestled at the edge of the forest, with south-facing orientation. The grapes in this vineyard benefit from the ample sun exposure, as well as the cool temperature from the high altitude, hence achieving optimal ripeness. The soil comprises a very thin layer of clay and limestone.
Vinification:
The grapes are sorted twice, once in the vineyard, another in the winery.
